Almost there – 15% left to raise

A year ago, we did not know that we would still be here in the U.S.A. But after Paul and Barnabas’s 1st missionary assignment they stayed in Antioch a long time with the disciples, reporting all that God had done through them and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles. We are not finished reporting yet and challenging churches to be concerned about a corner of the world called Las Tablas. When we leave for Spain, the Lord will have tripled the number of people who are praying for this work! At present we are up to 84.5% support. We are in the process of generating, certifying, and translating various documents like police clearance, medical clearance, and marriage license. After we receive the letter of invitation from Spain we must take all of the documents and the applications to the consulate in D.C. After Spain’s Consulate receives our requests for working visas, it will take about two months for them to be approved. By this time the remaining 15.5% of support needs to be in place before we can purchase plane tickets.

Muhas Arrive in Madrid – Apartment hunting

Hey, everybody! Are you praying for an apartment for us in Madrid? If not, get goin’! If you are, “Thank You!” and please keep it up!!! We saw another apartment this evening and we really liked it. It’s around 1000 sq.’, 3 bdrms., 2 bths. (perfect for church planting and visitors!!!), tankless hot water, includes 1 parking space, the condo costs, a storage space off the garage, AIR CONDITIONING(!!!!) and the appliances. It has laminate wood floors, is in a fairly new building (just 3-yrs.old), decent views, updated windows that are more energy efficient, bathrooms with marble, a great front door that couldn’t be broken into without removing the entire wall, crown molding in the living room – this may be way too luxurious for missionaries!!! We have an offer written up and hope to send it tonight if we get the “OK” from the powers that be. Please pray that if this is the building and apartment where God wants us to live that the owner would accept our offer. Thank you so much for all of the prayers and responses we’ve received. You are too sweet! All our love, Scott and Lorna P.S. We miss you!
